Hi....new member

Hi everyone,

Just joined the forum. I have a GMT II pepsi, which i bought new in 2002.
It has gone for servicing and also needs a new bracelet & winder.

I wore it everyday, and didn't wrap it in cotton wool, although with the cost of the repairs etc, i wish i had

Ive been into the local Rolex dealer a couple of times, looking at purchasing another.

Tried on the Air King and Explorer 1 today, must say, in the flesh, they are gorgeous!!!!

I have got the Rolex bug now,i am thinking it could be expensive...lol.


Heres a picture of my GMT II just before it went for some TLC. I will post a pic when it comes back. :thumbs:

Welcome to TRF. Both good choices but my second would be the iconic SUB. That would go great with your Pepsi.

Welcome to the forum. Your watch looks great and despite the cost of service it is worth it to have worn it so much over the years and not babied it.
